that sounds splendid. A supercharger for this car would probably push it into 120+ mph traps!

Very nice! When did Ford cooperate with Toyota? Only through hardcore people. I think this supercharger setup is more practical and economic wise than a rear mounted turbo on the IS-F. 7-8 psi of boost will do wonderful things on this car. A good tune can probably make 500 rwhp with some brutal torque.
